I predict 1.2m-1.3m for tomorrow and Thursday. Such a shame, hopefully they pick up when the world cup ends, but it may be a little too late now. Positive I guess is that CBB follows and will most certainly increase surely (not good news for people who dislike CBB), but to be fair, CBB13 was better than BB15. Well CBB13 was the best of all Ch5 series IMO anyway. CBB14 will probably be around the same as CBB10 (2.2m official, 1.8m overnight).No where near as CBB13's 3.04m.

As depressing as it is it is nice to see forum members finally stop making excuses for it, it was getting to the point of the thread just turning into a debate about the football every day.
Its clear its not just the football and people are now realising these overnights are very poor and admitting it, its like im not fighting an army of the glass half full crew.
It is what it is, all we can hope for is they pick up after the footie ends but I don't think its all down to the football. I think its mostly due to a very underwhelming launch and boring first few highlight shows that it just didn't grab people or make them want to tune in.
I feel like it might be the end of civilian BB and who can blame Viacom when they have shows like Geordie Shore that are getting over a million for every episode (season 7 anyway) and is far cheaper. Geordie Shore is still growing as BB was but its taken a battering and has plummeted.
They also have to think of the media interest on social networks and how much publicity that brings in and the Geordie shore cast have over 9 million followers

.
Compare that to BB.
